In this episode, we’re dusting off our Disney bucket list and revisiting the dreams, plans, and “someday” moments that first made us fall in love with Walt Disney World. From experiences we’ve already checked off (and totally want to do again) to the ones that somehow keep getting pushed to the next trip, we’re chatting about how our Disney priorities have changed over time.

We’re talking must-do rides, shows, snacks, tours, resorts, and those magical moments that feel extra special now that we’ve done Disney a few (or many) times. Plus, which bucket list items lived up to the hype, which surprised us, and what’s officially moving to the top of the list for future trips.

If you love dreaming, planning, and re-planning your next Disney adventure, this episode is for you. 🏰✨
